King Conan: Wolves Beyond the Border

Set in the final years of Conan's life, King Conan: Wolves Beyond the Border is a 2015–2016 Dark Horse miniseries that adapts an unfinished Robert E. Howard story into a four-issue epic. Scripted by Tim Truman with art by Tomás Giorello, the tale finds the aging Cimmerian king confronting a new threat to his throne while wrestling with the ghosts of his past. Ruth and Jim Keegan contributed to the visual storytelling, adding a distinct texture to this late-era Conan saga. It matters as a faithful, gritty expansion of Howard's original fragment, offering a poignant final chapter to the barbarian's reign.
